The Crew is set to hire veteran European coach Robert Maaskant as an assistant and MLS veteran
Pat Onstad as a goalkeepers coach, sources told
The Dispatch yesterday.

Maaskant, 44, most recently coached for Dimano Minsk in Belarus. A former Dutch midfielder,
Maaskant has coached a number of European teams since 1999 and led Wisla Krakow to a Polish
championship in 2011. He also played alongside new Crew coach and sporting director Gregg Berhalter
for Dutch club FC Zwolle in 1994 and ’95.

Onstad, 45, has 23 years of professional playing experience and was MLS goalkeeper of the year
in 2003 and 2005. He also won the MLS Cup in 2003 with San Jose and in 2006 and 2007 with Houston.
Onstad most recently served as chief scout and manager of football partnerships for Toronto FC
after a two-year stint as an assistant coach for D.C. United.

Onstad also coached alongside current Crew assistant Josh Wolff for D.C. United from
2012-13.

The moves complete Berhalter’s coaching staff and are expected to announced today.
